<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cloudsweeper99, post: 74362, member: 3011&quot;]Silver is a pretty special material for industry.&nbsp; Silver halides have greater sensitivity to light than any known chemical.&nbsp; It conducts heat and electricity better than any other metal.&nbsp; It is the most reflective of all metals.&nbsp; It is the most ductile metal except for gold.&nbsp; It is very stable chemically.&nbsp; It has unique bacteriostatic properties.&nbsp; It resists corrosion.&nbsp; It is also very rare, even more rare than gold when you measure by above-ground stockpiles.&nbsp; And the list goes on and on.&nbsp; Yes, it is true that there are replacements for silver in various industrial uses, but at a cost in dollars and performance.&nbsp; No doubt the replacements will be used someday, but only after silver reaches a sustained higher price than today.&nbsp; Once the price of silver goes up, it is unlikely to go back down.&nbsp; Waiting for $4 silver to return makes about as much sense as waiting for the price of a mid-sized car to go back to $2,000.</p><p><br /></p><p>So save those silver coins![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
